Industrial revolution

Created by James Watt, it became the principal energy source that boosted the producing process.

So the socio-economic wellness increased: it was the cause of a general population growth and so the reason of an increased of the "demand", stimulating the productivity .

The agricultural revolution is strictly connected to the population growth. Infact the increase of population was the base of an agricultural revolution, because of the increased of food request .

The request of more wool clothes was heard by James Hargreaves that invencted the spinning jenny (a machine that could amplify the prodution).

Invected by Richard Arkwright, it was a loom that uses the water source

It was a tool used to contain the string for the weaving

Invected by Edmund Cartwright, it was the most used loom that stopped itself in the case of broken string and changed the flying shuttle without blocked the machine.

We could observe that the need of working force increased (because of the superior demand), but the paid was reduced caused by the major presence of machines. The effects were an exploitation of the workers and some insurrections, conclused with the Factory Acts.

With the end of the Napoleonic Empire, the England ehanced its power becaming the europian hegemony.
